A little news in today's newsletter: Senate Dems are seeking more information about a DHS OIG report that found all-hands-on-deck immigration enforcement was crowding out anti-fentanyl trafficking work at Homeland Security Investigations www.thebulwark.com/p/ai-is-a-te...

Maybe the most staggering thing about the "Anti-Weaponization Fund" is how much of a black box it is. 5 hand-picked Trump goobers empowered to set 100 percent of the procedures and make 100 percent of the decisions w/ zero oversight or transparency. Newsletter: www.thebulwark.com/p/how-to-rob...

“These middle-aged men, some of the most powerful in the world, are not allowed even to stand or walk normally. ... For them, servility to Donald Trump has gone beyond the merely mental; they feel it in their skin, their joints, their bones.” Me on Marco's shoes: www.thebulwark.com/i/190718221/...

For me, the most shocking moment of Kash Patel's Senate testimony today was when he cleaned his glasses with his thumb

I go huge swaths of time forgetting Sean Davis exists and it's so exciting whenever I remember. He's just a cut above.

From Pete Hegseth to Pam Bondi to John Ratcliffe, yesterday was a perfect illustration of how Trump's own personal pathologies are now marching orders for the executive branch at every level. Today's newsletter: www.thebulwark.com/p/trumps-abo...

Exact same argument Republicans made about the deficit impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act back in 2017--which, to the shock of all, turned out to be total bunk

What to make of the paganism-adjacent "wellness" writings of Donald Trump's new thinkfluencer surgeon general pick? I reached out to some actual neopagans to find out. www.thebulwark.com/i/163206078/...

If you think it's odd that the president can't clarify his position on the top marginal tax rate without a wandering digression into Ross Perot then you simply don't understand the majesty of The Weave

Donald Trump swaggered into office 100 days ago claiming a sweeping popular mandate. Maybe if he hadn't so thoroughly convinced himself that was true he wouldn't already have done so much to blow up his own brand. www.thebulwark.com/p/a-100-day-...

The Trump tariffs have lost even the incredibly irritating AI account that does nothing but hop into people's replies to explain why this or that thing the White House is doing is good

Thinking about the time last August when the markets dipped for a couple days and Trump went ballistic about the "KAMALA CRASH!" "You can't play games with MARKETS."

WSJ today: Trump will see "exemptions as a way to leverage campaign contributions from business. Liberation Day is Buy Another Yacht Day for the swamp." I've been clanging this bell since last year: www.thebulwark.com/p/a-hatefest...

Yesterday morning, JD Vance falsely described the man mistakenly deported to El Salvador as "a convicted member of MS-13." He has never been convicted of anything--but the White House brazenly doubled down. www.thebulwark.com/p/wakeup-cal...

The admin claims these guys are gang-affiliated terrorists. Their families swear they're anything but. If only there were some sort of--what would you call it--*process* by which we could figure out who's correct.

Not that there's "logic" here per se, but the logic here would invalidate any decision by any federal judge in America, including SCOTUS. (Not elected!)
